Biden announces huge Supreme Court overhaul

I fear the lack of regard for America's Constitution along with the ignorance of our founding fathers and their skill in creating this cherished experience in governing our nation. While these ill-educated youth devastate traces of America's cherished history, they follow Iran-led teachers in learning to chant programmed phrases such as "Death to America" and "Death to Israel". Now, with Kamala-ites holding our very principles under their control, I wonder if our nation has valiant defenders to protect all we have as a foundation. TD

 UK Daily Mail (msn.com)  "President Joe Biden has called for sweeping reforms to the Supreme Court, including term limits, a binding code of conduct for its nine justices and a constitutional amendment that would limit presidential immunity.

"Biden, citing 'recent ethics scandals' involving justices and high court rulings that 'overturned long-established legal precedents protecting fundamental rights', has called on Congress to pass three major reforms in a bid to 'restore trust and accountability' in America's democratic institutions.

"The White House on Monday detailed the contours of Biden's court proposal, noting how the Democrat believes 'no one - neither the President nor the Supreme Court - is above the law'.

"The President will officially propose the changes today during a speech in Austin, Texas, however, his proposals appear to have little chance of being approved by a deeply divided Congress with just 99 days to go before Election Day. 

"Regardless, Democrats hope Biden's proposal will help to focus voters as they consider their choices in the tight presidential election. 

"Vice President Kamala Harris, the presumptive Democratic nominee, has sought to frame her race against Republican former President Donald Trump as 'a choice between freedom and chaos'." . . .

Our downhill slide became evident with Obama and accelerated with this maladroit man and his sinister vice President, "Madam I'm Speaking!"  TD

OPINION: Biden's Supreme Court 'Reform' Is a Lame Duck Fantasy by a Failed Little Man – RedState   "Joe Biden used the op-ed page of the Washington Post rather than an address to the nation to announce his anticipated "reform" plan for the US Supreme Court on Monday. This eleventh-hour grasp for power and relevance was brought on by the US Supreme Court ruling against Biden's attempt to use the Executive Branch as the only branch of government and manipulate it to punish his political opponents contrary to law and custom." . . .

No matter how poorly Biden's governing, he has the support of the press, media (including especially the talk-weasel Colbert), late-night TV shows, and most, it would seem, of academia.

Drag Queen Olympics Is What a Kamala Harris Presidency Would Look Like

Parody: A counterfeit Kamala Harris ad is comedy gold - American Thinker 

. . ."People who believe in things like moral codes and absolute truth are anathema to leftists, hence the constant assault on religion and people of faith." . . . 

The Paris Olympics had their opening ceremonies, and instead of being an opportunity to honor the best athletes around the world, they became a weapon in the war against Christianity. Instead of honoring athletes, the ceremonies were a tribute to drag queens and child grooming -- and, most importantly, a direct attack on everyone who accepts the Gospel.

Included in the opening ceremonies was a “parody” of The Last Supper. Jesus was portrayed by an obese woman showing her cleavage in a bustier, and all of the disciples were transvestites, along with one child. In front of them was a nearly naked French actor in blue body paint (and almost nothing else) moving sexually as the Greek god Dionysus.

Well, Jill liked the Olympic ceremony -Silvio Canto, Jr.

 . . . I still think Donald Trump is in a good position to return to the White House, but I'm now unnerved by the peppiness on the other side. Like you, I don't trust the Democrats, especially during an election year. The fewer variables, the better. The energy change is a variable. My mood is definitely not as good as it was when the Republican National Convention wrapped up. "

The Twilight Zone predicted this

 "California took a step closer to state-mandated tranny surgery by requiring schools not to tell parents about their children changing sex identity." D.S.

Don Surber (substack.com)  

"A reader pointing to the anti-Semitic riots in Washington by the spoiled brats of socialism last week made a reference to Billy Mumy and the Twilight Zone episode, It’s A Good Life.

"In it, Mumy plays an 8-year-old boy named Anthony whose telepathic powers terrorize his small town in Ohio.

"Anthony had not reached the age of reason, which is why he used his supernatural powers capriciously. He did not realize his actions had consequences. This led to death and destruction with the boy sending people who think a bad thought about him to the cornfield.

"The episode was set in his parent’s living room with him and a half-dozen or so adults. None dared confront him or challenge him. They were struck by fear.

"Finally, one man gotets drunk on brandy and does. Mumy’s character got mad and turned him into a jack-in-the-box. His head bobbing back and forth was more than his wife can handle and she begged that he be sent to the cornfield. Wish granted.

"The episode ended with the boy creating more havoc by having it snow, which would kill the crops they needed to eat. The adults did [nothing]. They pretended everything was fine.

"I always saw the episode as a cautionary tale about Baby Boomers who were an outsized group in 1959 that was changing culture and later downstream politics.

"The boy was not the villain. The cowardly adults were." . . .

‘What the Hell Have You Done?’: JD Vance Lambasts Kamala Harris for Questioning His Loyalty

— JD Vance (@JDVance) July 28, 2024

"Former President Donald Trump’s running mate, Sen. J.D. Vance (R-OH), issued a scathing rebuke of Vice President Kamala Harris for questioning his loyalty.

"While speaking in front of a packed crowd in St. Cloud, Minnesota, Vance criticized Harris for her remarks in a 45-second YouTube video, where she claimed that the Ohio senator would be “loyal only to Trump, not to our country.”

"Harris asserted that Vance would be a “rubber stamp for [Trump’s] extreme agenda.”

"In response, Vance pointed out that he served in the Marine Corps and fought in Iraq after the 9/11 terrorist attacks. He also noted that he began a small business in the U.S." . . .

Kamala Harris’ harsh criticism of Israel is turning out to have deadly results

 None of this will mean anything to those pro-Hamas sheep in the streets, shouting their inane chants, burning flags, and vandalizing our treasured monuments. TD

Col. (Ret.) Jonathan Sweet 

Harris told Netanyahu she would not be silent. Hamas, Hezbollah and Iran heard her loud and clear and just told her they will not be silent either.

  "Washington may not fully realize it yet, nor the presidential candidate herself, but Vice President Harris’ honeymoon effectively ended Saturday in the Golan Heights on a bloody soccer field. The Mideast is on the cusp of what might become its bloodiest war since Israel’s founding in 1948.

"Harris’ self-serving decision to pander to Gen Z and progressive votes on Thursday after meeting with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu in the Oval Office is turning out to have deadly results.

"Harshly criticizing Israel as she did in front of Bibi at the White House might bag November votes – but they are also leading to body bags in Gaza and North Israel.

"Now, Israeli civilians are paying a heavy price for her words.

"In what could be described as a second Oct. 7, Hezbollah launched a rocket attack on a soccer field Saturday afternoon in the Golan Heights, killing 12 people, including children, and injuring 40.

"The attack struck the village of Majdal Shams. Home to a large Druze community – an Arab and Arabic-speaking ethnoreligious group. Many Druze are Israeli citizens and proudly serve in the IDF." . . .

Harris naively might have thought her ploy for votes in Michigan would lead to a humanitarian ceasefire in Gaza. But that ceasefire is not going to happen now and Harris, despite her team’s denials to the contrary, shoulders much of the burden of blame.

Our military leadership isn't 'woke'?

A word from Commander-In-Chief Harris:

Judicial Watch 

In 2022 we received hundreds of pages of records outlining CRT instruction at West Point that includes material on “whiteness,” a social science class on race, gender, and sexuality that focuses on queer theory, and a graphic titled “MODERN-DAY SLAVERY IN THE USA.” 

The Woke Military,” editorial cartoon by Yogi Love for The American Spectator

"The Pentagon dedicates tens of millions of dollars annually to Critical Race Theory (CRT) and Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI) programs throughout the armed forces and cadets at the nation’s military academies receive extensive training about racism, sexism, unconscious bias, and intersectionality.

"A year-long research project conducted by a special commission at a public university think tank has uncovered the unbelievable details behind a costly Department of Defense (DOD) initiative to root out so-called white privilege white supremacy in the military. The study, conducted by the Center for American Institutions at Arizona State University (ASU), began as a review of civic education in the military and uncovered a fervent woke movement throughout the nation’s armed forces. “Our research team did not expect to find Critical Race Theory so embedded and pervasive,” the center’s director, Donald T. Critchlow, an ASU American political history professor, writes in the introduction of a recently published report. He confirms that there is CRT and DEI training across the military from the Pentagon through the ranks. 

"It is important to note that the sole purpose of the U.S. armed forces is to defend the nation against external enemies, therefore the DOD’s mission is to provide the military forces needed to deter war and ensure the country’s security. The agency is the government’s largest with 3.4 million service members and civilians—in the Army, Marine Corps, Navy, Air Force, Space Force and Coast Guard—stationed at 4,800 sites in over 160 countries. Under the Biden administration the DOD budget for DEI training has increased significantly from $68 million in fiscal year 2022 to $86.5 million in fiscal year 2023, the report states. The agency is requesting a whopping $114.7 million for fiscal year 2024, according to DOD figures obtained by ASU researchers. “Training is implemented by a vast DEI bureaucracy that extends from senior leaders at the Pentagon to the lowest ranks,” the report says, adding that the “U.S. military now has a well-developed, taxpayer-funded DEI bureaucracy dedicated to rooting out ‘white privilege’ and white supremacy, and that allows for (and sometimes teaches) the overt criticism of the United States, its founding, its founders, and its founding documents, alleging that they are all rooted in systemic racism.”. . .

 BIPARTISAN: While Media Tries To Shield Kamala From Border Crisis... Congress Made Her Failure Official   . . ."The Dems realize that the border is a MASSIVE Public Relations problem for Kamala’s Comrade Chaos Campaign… and they have been working overtime to make all memory of the ‘Border Czar’ problem go away.

The Dems realize that the border is a MASSIVE Public Relations problem for Kamala’s Comrade Chaos Campaign… and they have been working overtime to make all memory of the ‘Border Czar’ problem go away. They have issued talking points for the Democrats to echo… and KJ has been dutifully performing her role as White House Spokes-Muppet. Whenever a reporter pulls the string on her back, she spits out the correct canned response. There’s even a hard copy of the latest talking points:

. . ."Symbolic or not, this a bipartisan rebuke of Kamala’s border failures during her time as Veep… six Democrats knew their personal political future would be in trouble if they didn’t admit the obvious failures.

"Now, when clowns on the evening news/opinion shows try to pass off criticism of Kamala’s border failures as somehow a ‘Republican’ attack, or a ‘Racist’ criticism of her… we need to remind them that this is far more ‘bipartisan’ than some of the other acts of Congress that were dubbed ‘bipartisan’ when a couple of gutless turncoats act as Democrats while pretending to be ‘principled Republicans’. (The J6 Committee for example.)

"Kamala is on record saying she does not believe that illegal entry into America is an actual crime, and she needs to own this issue… because it would define her time in office supposing she should ever be sworn in as the 47th President." . . .

Kamala Harris proves she’s no real friend to Israel

 Kamala Harris proves she's no real friend to Israel  

"She wants it done, she wants it over, she wants the hostages, she wants a Palestinian state, she wants Arab votes in Michigan . . . oh, wait, she didn’t say that part out loud." 

 "Advice to Israel: Get it done in Gaza fast and get to it with Hezbollah soon, because it’s a 50-50 proposition that Kamala Harris is going to be president in January.

"And she is coming after you.

"In her first major statement as the presumptive Democratic nominee, Harris began by saying Israel has the right to defend itself against terrorism.

"Some commenters said she was therefore speaking supportive words. That is absurd on its face.

"It actually goes without saying that every nation, in every circumstance, has the right to defend itself against terrorism, since terrorism is the act of deploying political violence against non-combatants. That includes bad nations, and mean nations, even tyrannical nations.

"Saying Israel has the right to defend itself against terrorism is a sentence with no meaning, and it is only uttered by those who wish to follow its utterance with a “but.”

"And here was Harris’s but: “How it does so matters.” . . .

JNS poll: Israelis support Donald Trump over Joe Biden

The Hour of Israeli Leadership has Arrived - CarolineGlick.com  . . ."Obama’s foreign policy was predicated on his anti-imperialist world view. Guided by its principles of Western culpability for the pathologies of the Middle East, Obama believed that Iran’s hostility towards the U.S. was justified. As he saw things, it was up to the U.S. to make amends to Iran by changing the way it operated in the Middle East.

"To accomplish this goal, Obama began realigning the U.S. towards Iran and its Sunni allies in the Muslim Brotherhood at the expense of Israel and the U.S.’s traditional Sunni Arab allies.

"Obama’s betrayal of both Israel and the Sunni Arabs brought the long estranged neighbors together. The Israeli-Sunni partnership was first brought to bear in the 2014 Hamas war against Israel. Obama sided with Hamas’s state sponsors Qatar and Turkey and insisted that Israel accept the terror regime’s ceasefire demands. Supported by Egypt, Saudi Arabia and UAE, Netanyahu was able to withstand Obama’s pressure." . . .

"The true birth of the Abraham alliance then, came without U.S. involvement, in response to the U.S.’s betrayal of Israel and the Sunni Arabs under the Obama administration." . . .

Kamala Harris, female messiah?

 Eric Utter - American Thinker   

"Kamala Harris has an extreme left voting record. She botched the border. She appears to be an anti-Semite. She is for virtually unfettered abortion. She isn’t the Messiah. She’s a mess. She doesn’t deserve to become the Cackler-in-Chief. And that’s the truth." 

"The entire federal government apparatus, made-up largely of Democrats, uses taxpayer money to attack its political opponents and retain and enhance its power. The larger the government gets, the larger it wants to be. And too many people are either on the government dole or are too stupid to notice or care.

"This is why it is so dangerous for Republicans, and Trump supporters in specific, to be overconfident about the upcoming election.

"Democrats, being maniacally power-besotted and grotesquely evil, no doubt have tricks up their sleeve as regards the upcoming presidential election. They have not openly imported 10 million illegal undocumented immigrants for no reason. And they “harvest” ballots like a farmer harvests corn, though the farmer at least knows from whence the corn came.

"As recently as a few weeks ago, some Democrats—and their human remoras that make up the mainstream media (emphasis on make up)—were claiming that President Biden was in tip-top shape, vigorous and virile, focused and sharp as the proverbial tack. The White House doctor claimed Biden was “healthy, active, robust.” Age had nothing on Biden and was an arbitrary and moot issue! However, once top Democrats realized that a Biden victory would be so preposterous (after his debate performance) as to arouse suspicion even among the dullest of Americans, he was issued an ultimatum and forced to quit his campaign…and the media was given its updated talking points. At which time it turned on Biden like Michael Moore on a Whopper with cheese." . . .

"And started claiming that Trump was too old to be president." . . . Full article here.

Trump Didn’t Back Out of the September Debate — Joe Biden Did

  National Review

Donald Trump’s campaign on Thursday announced that he is not yet ready to agree to the details of a debate with Vice President Kamala Harris, stating:

Given the continued political chaos surrounding Crooked Joe Biden and the Democrat Party, general election debate details cannot be finalized until Democrats formally decide on their nominee. There is a strong sense by many in the Democrat Party — namely Barack Hussein Obama — that Kamala Harris is a Marxist fraud who cannot beat President Trump, and they are still holding out hope for somebody “better.” Therefore, it would be inappropriate to schedule things with Harris because Democrats very well could still change their minds.

The wording of the statement, using Obama’s middle name and trolling with the recent chaos on the Democratic side, is very Trumpy. But it’s dishonest for Democrats and their media allies to act as if Trump is backing out because he is quaking in his boots about the prospect of Harris.

Why Were the DC Protests So Out of Control? There Were Only 29 Police!

 HotAir

"Many people are wondering how and why the protests against Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu got so out of control on Wednesday.

"In addition to the vandalism, tearing down of the American flag, and general violence, the police trying to control the crowd were violently attacked. 

"Well, there is a simple answer: there were only 29 Park Police who could defend the sites against the rampaging mob, and the Department of the Interior was unwilling to help those guys out. Dealing with a violent mob consisting of thousands of Antifa and pro-Hamas proto-terrorists, they were outmanned beyond belief." . . .

Fox News: Rashida Tlaib ripped for holding 'war criminal' sign during Netanyahu’s speech: 'Absolute disgrace'

 

. . ."Netanyahu tore into Gaza cease-fire demonstrations across the U.S. and accused Iran of funding those protests during an impassioned address. While many have praised him for his leadership and for his speech to Americans, not all politicians were happy to see him, with several Democrats skipping the event.

"Among those in the chamber was Tlaib, a Palestinian American who is one of Israel's harshest critics in the House of Representatives. Tlaib has called for Netanyahu to be arrested by the International Criminal Court (ICC). She staged a silent protest for much of his speech, holding a double-sided sign that read "guilty of genocide" on one side and "war criminal" on the other." . . .

Rashida Tlaib attends conference honoring terrorists, hosting terrorist speaker (msn.com)   "Michigan congresswoman Rashida Tlaib spoke on Saturday at a Detroit Pro-Palestinian conference that advocated on behalf of terrorism, honored terrorists, and featured a member of a terrorist organization as a panelist.

"Tlaib made a surprise appearance at the People’s Conference for Palestine, an event that saw dozens of the anti-Israel groups involved in the post-October 7 protests in attendance, while Dearborn Michigan Mayor Abdullah Hammoud gave a video address.
